From 15d49089e5b541c514fa458d6c8487afc8f8af7c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li RongQing Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 06:59:57 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/kernel-parameters: fix architecture alignment for pt, nopt, and nobypass Commit ab0e7f20768a ("Documentation: Merge x86-specific boot options doc into kernel-parameters.txt") introduced a formatting regression where architecture tags were placed on separate lines with broken indentation. This caused the 'nopt' [X86] parameter to appear as if it belonged to the [PPC/POWERNV] section. Furthermore, since the main 'iommu=' parameter heading already specifies it is for [X86, EARLY], the subsequent standalone [X86] tags for 'pt', 'nopt', and the AMD GART options are redundant and clutter the documentation. Clean up the formatting by removing these redundant tags and properly attributing the 'nobypass' option to [PPC/POWERNV].
